EWATOMI

Here is another piece from Ben Da Poet

ADUKE daughter of ABEBI
You are the definition of beauty
You are beauty personified
Delicate in beauty like the new moon
Sensual like the sun setting in full splendour
With your jet black hair that covers your head

Oh! What chubby cheeks you possess
Your gliding steps is the epitome of beauty
EWATOMI, gentle is the speech that comes from your mouth
The total package is the testament of your beauty...
They make you glow like sun rays

The flour seller is so taken by your beauty
That she spills her good at the sight of you
She was confused... At the sight of a peacock
The benchmark of all beauty

You passed through Ayinde's house
He puts down the pot shard and fetch the hot embers on his palm
When asked why, he said it wasn't his fault
He just saw a beauty so unfeigned

Slave owners came with slaves
But you turned them down
Owners of bonds men made their bid
Still you said no Chief of all farmers came
Which is incomparable... still you said no
With variety of farm produce

You said it is me you want
You'd prefer to go with me
You said...
You said... You said...
EWATOMI OMOLEWA ADUMAADAN!
